@NickRiccardi Anyway, I thought your critiques were good, I just disagree that it wasn’t a great show. — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

@NickRiccardi I mean, the whole structure of the show appeared to bend to DrM’s perception of time. The things that happened in the past are just as relevant as the things happening now — a point that’s a pretty resonant way to look at the African-American community — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

@NickRiccardi Anyway, if there was *ever* a hero to demonstrate how the events of the past added the present ... wouldn’t it be a superhero who experiences time simultaneously? A point DrM makes over and over and over again! — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

@NickRiccardi Both in lingering effect it had on her family and very real racism she deals w/in her own life. And I kind of think this was point of the show? Consider how so much of it was told — flashbacks! Like, half this thing. There was a whole episode in which she loved her g/f’s memories — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

@NickRiccardi That was a major plot point and still doesn’t make sense to me? Anyway, here’s why I think show still works and needed Watchmen: to me, it was a show about depicting the damage of inter-generational trauma. Angela still felt the sins (racism) perpetrated against her grandfather — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

@NickRiccardi ... to be much more complicated — they knew about Viedt’s deception! — but it seemed as if show ran out of time and needed to make them straightforward villians. Ditto w/Lady Trieu. This could have been a 13 episode series season. Also, why did Dr. M have to sacrifice himself??? — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

@NickRiccardi I’m not sure if this makes it better or worse. But per your critiques, a lot rings true — original Hooded Justice was shown to pay a price for his vigilantism. The show gives ... nothing to suggest why it’d be different for her. Also, feels to me like 7th Cavalry was set up ... — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

@NickRiccardi At the top, I would say the primary enjoyment was week-to-week mystery/entertainment of each episode, which built on itself in a way I’m not sure binging replicates. I’d compare it to “True Detective,” which was also thrilling to watch in realtime but wasn’t the same in rewatches — PolitiTweet.org
